11: Chapter 11 The Beauty Su Yao

Back home, Su Nange immediately turned on his computer and logged into his money-making machine.

Soon, he sold another car with the highest value for a civilian.

Over a hundred thousand in cash was instantly credited to his account.

Su Nange's Stamina had now reached its limit. However, the Strength and Driving attributes, which were very practical in reality, still had significant room for improvement.

But Strength was already sufficient. Now, even taking on a group of thugs single-handedly was no problem for him.

So, Su Nange began frantically grinding his Driving ability again.

After grinding for about four hours, Su Nange's Driving ability reached the maximum level.

Letting out a long breath, Su Nange went to the window and lit a cigarette. Checking his phone, he saw it was already late at night.

However, having finally maxed out his Driving ability, he wasn't going to sleep. With his Stamina at the maximum level, it meant his energy also surpassed that of ordinary people.

As long as it wasn't pulling all-nighters several days in a row, it was nothing to him.

After finishing his cigarette, he immediately sat back down at the computer. He opened the character's phone and searched for Racing Jobs.

However, in Su Nange's memory, these jobs couldn't be started alone; they required online players to join.

Yet, so far, Su Nange hadn't seen a single soul in this session. Aside from NPCs, there were no other living people at all.

Nevertheless, when the Racing Job opened, it quickly showed other players entering. But when Su Nange looked closely, they had no IDs; they were still NPCs.

Su Nange didn't mind. It was best if he was the only one in this world! Who wouldn't love to keep a low profile while developing?

Thus, a racing competition began immediately.

However, driving the race car provided by the system, Su Nange couldn't outrun those NPCs at all. If he wanted to win, it seemed he would have to buy his own car.

Fortunately, no matter what rank Su Nange finished in, even if it was last place, there was a $1,000 prize.

With this, another sum of income was added to his account.

Suddenly, Su Nange thought, couldn't money be topped up in this game? Buying Shark Cards could directly convert to in-game currency.

He remembered that a Shark Card cost about 40 to 60 yuan but could be exchanged for millions in game currency.

Su Nange got excited again and pulled up the mall page.

Unfortunately, there were no Shark Cards here at all. Instead, there were rows upon rows of locked icons.

Su Nange looked at the first unlocked item; it was labeled "Healing Gel," priced at $100.

Effect: Can help the character heal wounds quickly.

The second one was also unlocked, selling "Stamina Recovery Agent" for $120. Effect: Instantly restores 20% of Stamina, not limited to characters.

From the third one onwards, they were all items waiting to be unlocked, and their details could not be viewed yet.

Su Nange fell into thought. The original GTA game mall was already very powerful. All kinds of planes, tanks, and even nuclear submarines could be bought.

Then what did this system mall mean?

It said "not limited to characters"—does that mean I can use it directly on others?

Su Nange checked his current level; it was level 10, and the next item would unlock at level 15.

It seemed that in-game Reputation was still very important; it was meant to keep him playing continuously.

After thinking it over, today's gains were decent. After all, earning a hundred thousand a day meant he wasn't in that much of a hurry.

Having not slept for two days, he finally decided to get a good night's sleep.

The next morning, Su Nange drove to the company.

After last night, he had become somewhat familiar with the department.

Seeing Ding Quxiao in the morning, Su Nange took the initiative to greet her.

But Sister Ding only responded coolly, as if she didn't care much about anything happening around her.

Su Nange understood. For such a "great Buddha" to still come to work, she probably just had nothing better to do at home. Looking closely today, Ding Quxiao's floral dress was actually Burberry.

No wonder she appeared so elegant.

Immersing himself in work, Su Nange still thought about how to do things well.

Especially now that he had capital, he couldn't allow failure. He was still a very passionate and good comrade.

Su Nange thought for a bit. To break the deadlock, he still had to start with Zhou Wanqing's side. But he couldn't approach her directly, so what should he do?

That's it! Su Nange thought of something, took out his phone, searched for a person, and prepared to send a message.

After some thought, he decided to make a phone call instead.

"Hello, sorry to bother you, beautiful. I'm calling suddenly because I have something I'd like your advice on."

A pleasant female voice came from the other side: "I know you've joined that insurance company, but I'm just a small fry. How could I give you any advice?"

Sensing her intention to refuse, Su Nange quickly said, "It's a matter of life and death. For the sake of having been colleagues briefly, and since we share the same surname, give me a chance to treat you to lunch today."

The girl on the other side hesitated: "This..."

Su Nange laughed. "It's not like I don't know your cafeteria. The same dishes every few days. I'll treat you to something delicious."

The girl had no choice but to reply, "Alright, but we only have an hour and a half for lunch. You know how it is."

Su Nange nodded and made an OK sign in the air, regardless of whether she could see it.

As soon as he hung up, Du Ming leaned over. "Who were you calling? A 'great beauty'?"

Su Nange smiled. "Someone from the City Investment Company. I'm planning to pay a visit."

They had all heard that Su Nange had some connections, and now it turned out to be true!

Du Ming laughed. "Take me with you?"

Su Nange shook his head. "Next time. This time, I'm going to ask for a favor."

Du Ming wouldn't give up and was about to say something when Sister Ding shot him a look.

Du Ming was also afraid of this "great Buddha," so he dropped the idea and slid his chair back to his workstation.

Su Nange whispered to Ding Quxiao, "Thank you."

Ding Quxiao still had no expression. "Young man, be more steady. Don't talk about everything."

But Su Nange suddenly changed his expression, no longer looking innocent as before. He said, "Sister Ding is right, but if we young people don't show off a bit, who will take me seriously?"

Ding Quxiao finally showed a different expression. It turned out this kid was quite good at disguising himself.

Su Nange organized some materials and left early, driving his car near the City Investment Company.

When it was time for work to end, Su Nange saw a very sweet-looking girl walking towards him in her uniform shoes.

Su Nange didn't get out to open the door for her; he just waved from inside the car.

The sweet girl opened the car door, smoothed her skirt, and sat in the passenger seat.

She exclaimed in surprise, "Didn't you just graduate? You already bought a car?"

Actually, Su Nange had just met this girl last week. She was the young assistant by Zhou Wanqing's side, and she shared his surname, Su. Her name was Su Yao.

Su Yao was a year or two older than Su Nange. Coming from a scholarly family, she had tested into the City Investment Company and was currently a financial assistant.

Facing Su Yao's question, Su Nange didn't answer directly. He only said, "In a finance company, you have no choice; you have to keep up appearances. It's just second-hand."

After saying that, Su Nange started the car and drove to a fairly high-end Sakura cuisine restaurant.

Su Nange knew that girls generally liked Japanese cuisine—exquisite and beautiful.

Moreover, the tables in such shops were quite small, which Su Nange felt made it easier to talk and build rapport.

Once they were seated, Su Nange handed over a small shopping bag.

Su Yao felt she definitely couldn't accept it and tried to return it.

Su Nange said, "It's fine. It's just a blind box, which seems to be quite popular now. As for how much it's worth, it all depends on your luck, Great Beauty Yao!"

Su Nange continued to joke, "Control yourself, though. If you pull a limited edition, we might both end up in trouble!"

Sure enough, Su Yao giggled. She took it and saw that it was indeed the Fanged Rabbit she liked so much.

After Su Nange's high-EQ move, Su Yao began to relax.

This also paved the way for Su Nange's subsequent request.
